Beginning our visit with a smile!Close up of plum blossoms, which is why we're here today.A Reflecting pondHanhan with some wine pots. Plum blossoms everywhere.Me and my lucky flowers, it's a long story.Hanhan resting at the original gate to the park.This is the 'Heart Washing Spring' To make you forget your cares before entering the park. The 'Sky Heart Pagoda'Nice path for a stroll though the plum trees.The owner's living room. He was a rich art lover and created this park for his enjoyment.Another part of his living room. An old Chinese building. These are getting hard to find nowadays.Further along the path, another example of the old China.Now we're heading for the temple on the hill.View from the top of the temple. From the other side of the temple. All rested now, we'll continue.The plaque is the owner's book preface.An ancient brass mirror, Hanhan LOVES mirrors!A tired Hanhan taking a rest in a beautiful spot. Gary doesn't get to rest, something about the wicked...Approaching a church.Hanhan trying to get in. It's locked because it is only for show.This is used as a backdrop for weddings. Wedding pictures here are always fantasy. Hanhan admiring the roses. No picking allowed!Which is prettier?A peaceful pond and stream, quite rare in this place to find no people.My little Dutch girl! Finally! A shoe that is just my size!'Handbag' flowers. Very cool, look closely to see how they got their name.Share MY cotton candy!? Ha! Hanhan on the climbing wall. She made it all the way.A flower boat makes a nice seat. 'Better than nature' rock. Because the owner laid this out and thought it was better.Strange for China, no people in sight. Nice for us though.The characters say 'Spring begins here'. And on this day, it did. Ling Shan Buddha SiteMid Autumn Festival 2006
